The birthday candles have been blown out so now we can get down to the task of getting ready for Christmas!

For the last few weeks I have been cutting and sticking, making and writing, stamping and posting over 50 Christmas cards using a fun collage I made using photos taken on this years holiday.

I still haven't quite adjusted to Christmas being hot. For those born and bred in Australia it is normal but I was born and bred in Ireland, a land where cold and rain make Christmas a time to snuggle up in front of the fire, not the air-con!

If you are lucky (?!) enough to know us in real life then one of these cards should be dropping through your letter box any day now. If it already has why not leave me a comment so I know it has reached its destination.

If you are a blogger friend or just passing by then I wish you a very merry Christmas too and hope that you are enjoying this countdown through Advent, one of my favourite times of the year.
